upload progress:
A.
Seaterm232 sends several status commands
providing information
regarding the number of samples in memory, calibration coefficients,
etc., and writes the responses to the upload .xml file.
B.
If you selected Prompt for header information in the Upload Data
dialog box
– a dialog box with the header form appears. Enter the
desired header information, and click OK. Seaterm232 writes the
header information to the upload .xml file.
C.
Seaterm232 sends the data upload command, based on your selection
of upload range in the Upload Data dialog box, and writes the data to
the upload .xml file.
D.
From the information in the .xml file, Seaterm232 creates a .hex data
file and .xmlcon configuration file that are compatible with SBE Data
Processing for processing and plotting the data. These files are placed
in the same directory as the .xml data file and have the same name
(but different extensions).
Note:
SeatermV2 with version < 1.1 did not
convert the uploaded .xml data file to a
.hex and .xmlcon file.
Convert .XML data
file
in the Tools menu was used to
convert the .xml data file to a .cnv file,
which could be processed in SBE Data
Processing. We recommend that you
update your SeatermV2 software to 1.1b
or later.
